It couldn't be easier to make awesome-looking time-lapse videos with the free app. As Wired put it, Hyperlapse is like having a "$15,000 video setup in your hand."

Once you download and open the beautifully simple app, you'll tap to begin recording and tap again to stop.

Then you can watch your footage and pick a playback speed between 1x (that's normal speed) and 12x. Tap the green check mark to save it to your phone's camera roll.
